There is a picnic site at Long Melford Country Park, beside the Borley Road at the South end of the village. It is in a pleasant spot, beside the River Stour.
The flooded gravel pits nearby have become an excellent place to observe wildlife.
The walk along the riverbanks, shaded by willow and poplar trees, is particularly pleasant. it's also popular with anglers.
